118.   INT. THE RAVEN'S MAIN ROOM:  CLOSE FULL

            THE RAVEN:

            Stark!  The plan is changed.  We can't get the cell
            from the plane.  We'll have to grab Parker later and
            force him to build another.  But, at least we can
            eliminate Wayne.  Crash his plane, and make sure it's
            good.

       HOLD FOR CUTS as he listens to dive.

119.   STOCK:  "MANHUNT OF MYSTERY ISLAND" EP. 14
       As test plane stops its climb and drops down.

120.   INT. TEST PLANE #1:  CLOSE FULL  (PROCESS & PLATE)
       Bob slumps forward in the seat as the plane starts to dive.
       He shakes his head to clear it.  For a LATER CUT he reacts
       to dive.

            PROFESSOR PARKER'S VOICE:  (on radio)

            Bob!  Bail out while you can!  Bob, do you hear me?
            Bail out!

            BOB:  (into mike; edge of panic in his voice)

            I can't!  There's no chute in this plane!

       For LATER CUTS he tries desperately to pull on the wheel
       but it doesn't move.

121.   INT. TEST PLANE #1:  EXTREME CLOSE  (PROCESS & PLATE)
       On Bob's face as he sees impending disaster.

122.   EXT. AIRPORT:  MEDIUM CLOSE
       On Joan, Jeff and Parker.  RUN FOR CUTS as they watch
       action on viewing screen. A FINAL CUT shows them react to
       impending crash.

            JOAN:  (despairing)

            He's going to crash!  Bob!  Bob!
